Four Fandom sources have been skipping on a challenged robots.txt every cycle,
and the only thing that clears it is a person passing the recorded permission.
Until now there was no way to do that from the workflow, so it meant checking
out the repo and running the refresh by hand. Both overrides are dispatch
inputs now, guarded on the literal string "true" and empty on the cron, so the
schedule still cannot reach either one.
The force-push guard needed narrowing to allow this. It asserted the workflow
contains no "--force" anywhere, as a proxy for never rewriting the branch, and
the refresh runner's own --force flag trips that substring while having nothing
to do with pushing. It now matches force on a git push specifically, including
--force-with-lease, which is still one — a tighter assertion than the string it
replaces, checked against both a real force push and the flag it must ignore.

Both overrides stand in for a person deciding something, and the gate that
enforced it asked the coarser question. `isCi()` got the case that matters
wrong: a `workflow_dispatch` sets CI=true, so somebody clicking "Run workflow"
was refused exactly as the cron was, which made both flags unreachable from the
workflow at all. A dispatch is a person, and a better-evidenced one than a local
shell — GitHub records which one, and the run log keeps it.
`runAttendance` draws the line where it belongs: a local shell is a person, a
dispatch is a person and names the actor, and a schedule — or any other runner
event, erring that way on purpose — is not. The run now prints which override
was used and who authorised it, because a local shell leaves no trace anybody
else can read.
The schedule stays refused, and for the robots override that is not ceremony.
From an address that gets a challenge we never receive robots.txt at all, so a
cron standing on the recorded permission has no way to notice the host
withdrawing it, and that permission has no expiry. The challenge-or-refusal
narrowing does not close this: a plain 403 still stops us, but a robots.txt
edited to disallow us would be invisible, because a challenge arrives instead of
a file. A person re-reading it is the only thing that ever re-validates it.

This file recorded a 403 as Fandom's posture, holding across every wiki and
every address, which made those four sources permanently unschedulable. It was
measured with curl, and curl is not what fetches: on one address, in the same
minute, curl takes a 403 with a bare, a Chrome and our own User-Agent alike,
while Bun's fetch is served the real robots.txt on all five hosts and the gate
passes with no override.
Two variables were folded into one there, and they are worth holding apart. The
client mattered — but so does the address, and the client does not rescue it:
the 17:46 UTC run on ubuntu-latest still skipped all four Fandom sources using
that same Bun client. So a claim that these refresh on a schedule is a claim
about the address the runner has, and on the new one it is untested rather than
established. The next cycle settles it.
Three traps recorded so the episode is not repeated: verify a fetch gate with
the real RobotsCache from the address that will run it, never a shell client;
the User-Agent is not a lever in either direction, so a 200 that appears when
you drop it is the challenge's probabilistic half and not a header you tuned;
and neither block is a rate limit, since every failure is first contact with
that host, the spacing is already applied, and a challenge carries no
Retry-After. More delay buys nothing.

`--assume-robots-on-403` stands in for rules a person read in a browser, for a
host that will not serve us the file. It always claimed it would not override a
host that had turned us away — but it could not tell the two 403s apart, so it
excused both. A managed challenge ("we cannot tell what you are") is a question
our fetcher cannot answer and the operators never asked, which is what makes a
human reading the rules a fair substitute. A bare 403 is the site itself saying
no, and nothing recorded on our side may talk over that.
`isInterstitialChallenge` now decides, on Cloudflare's own `cf-mitigated` header
with the challenge page's markers as a fallback; an unreadable body counts as
unclassifiable rather than challenged. This only ever narrows what the flag
opens, so nothing that passed the gate before stops passing it.
Every 403 is classified whether or not the flag is set, and the kind goes into
the reason string the run reports. `robots.txt returned 403` read identically
whether the answer was to refresh by hand on the recorded permission or to stop
fetching the source, and the summary is where somebody has to decide that.

F1 described a board-only setting and said in as many words that the
checklist "has listed them all along", which is now the opposite of what
happens. F2 did not mention the section at all. Both say it once, in the
place a reader of either would look.
The prefs key space records the rename and why the old value is carried
rather than dropped — the next person to move a field will want the
precedent, and the reasoning is the half a diff cannot show.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
F1 described bars that carry their own not-started marking and stopped
there. It now has the label naming where the running ones end, and the
choice between keeping that block and dropping it for one deadline order
— including why the second is a re-sort rather than a hidden heading,
which is the part a future change would otherwise get wrong.
The heading itself shipped a commit earlier without this; same feature,
so it is written up once here rather than split across two entries.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
F1 described a control in the board's header that is now a row in
settings, and the reasoning is worth keeping rather than the location
alone: the header holds the controls that reshape what is on the board,
settings holds the ones that decide what is on it. That is the line, and
it is what would otherwise be re-argued the next time a filter needs a
home.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
F1 said the timeline plots what the reader can see, which is now half
true, and the prefs key space did not list the field the board writes.
Both record the argument the code only implies: the window is drawn from
what is plotted, so on-by-default is not a fuller board, it is a smaller
one for everything that is actually running.

The interval gate has no override, so a page you know has just changed cannot
be fetched until six hours after the last attempt. The only workaround was
deleting snapshots/<id>.state.json, which also wipes consecutiveFailures and
lastConfirmedAt — resetting the broken-source streak and making the footer age
every source from when its bytes last changed rather than when we last
confirmed them. A flag that says what it means is better than a side effect
nobody documented.
It sets aside the interval and nothing else. Conditional headers still go out,
which is what makes forcing defensible at all: the host is asked, not
re-served, and an unchanged page costs it a 304. Per-host spacing, robots, one
request per source and the no-retry rule all still apply — a source that was
not due and is also disallowed stays skipped, for the reason that matters.
Refused under CI, like --assume-robots-on-403 and for the same reason: a
schedule that forces every cycle is a shorter interval with extra steps, and
the interval is the obligation, not the default. So AGENTS.md § Scraping
conduct is amended rather than left to be quietly contradicted by a flag.
Every source asked early is named in summary.forced and warned about. A run
that was due anyway is never reported as forced — a summary that cried "forced"
on an ordinary run would train the reader to ignore the word.
Also repoints the "unknown flag" test, which used --force as its example and
stopped testing anything the moment --force existed.

Its conduct is the cleanest of anything looked at here — a robots.txt of pure
comments, no directive, no Content-Signal, and a plain 200 to our own
User-Agent — so the reason not to build it is entirely in the data, and is worth
writing down rather than re-deriving next time the URL is offered.
The calendar prints no year anywhere, and heads its only date row "Estimated
date for Regional Servers" over a page that says the schedule is the CN
server's. Every date it could publish would therefore be a guess twice over: a
year we inferred, on a boundary the page itself declines to stand behind. The
week-column grid also rounds an end to a bucket rather than to a printed day,
and the URL carries the version number, so a SOURCES entry pinned to calendar89
would be publishing history from tomorrow.
The markup is recorded anyway, because it is readable and that is not the
problem — if the site ever states a year and a real regional schedule, the work
is a positional parser and nothing else.

Fandom answers our fetcher 403 on /robots.txt itself, from every address we
have, while api.php?action=parse answers the same User-Agent with a 200. The
gate fails closed on the unreadable file, so r1999, fgo, nikke and nikki can
never refresh — even though their rules are not unknown: a person read them in
a browser and wrote them into AGENTS.md, verbatim, which is how three of those
four were cleared in the first place.
This flag is that recorded permission, and nothing wider. What it deliberately
does not do is most of the design:
- 403 only. A 401, a 5xx, a timeout or a soft 404 still mean we do not know
what the site permits, and unknown is still not permission.
- It never overrides a robots.txt we could read. A file that answers and
disallows us is an answer, and it still wins. So this is no use for game8.co
— whose robots.txt reads fine and welcomes us while its edge refuses the
pages — and it must not become one.
- Refused under CI. It stands in for a human having read a file this morning,
and there is no human on a runner. A scheduled job asserting a permission
nobody re-checked is exactly how "temporary" stops being temporary.
- Loud. Every host it applied to is warned about by name, in the run log and
in the summary, with a line saying to go re-read the file. An override that
reports nothing is one nobody withdraws.
Nothing else about being a guest relaxes: one request per source, six hours
apart, spaced per host, conditional headers, no retries.

Three parsers decide currency against ctx.now, because their page has no
"ongoing" heading worth trusting: bawiki.ts, and the Fate/Grand Order and
Infinity Nikki branches of fandom.ts. All three compared Date.parse(endsAt) to
now, and all three publish day-precision ends — so the comparison was against
the 00:00Z placeholder, which § Domain rules says is not an instant and nothing
may read literally.
clockFor already knows that and resolves such a boundary to the reset opening
that game-day on the reader's server. The parsers did not, so the feed retired
a row up to nine hours before the app, the countdown and the game all agreed it
was over. On the pinned Infinity Nikki fixture, "Inspiration Burst" left the
feed at 2026-08-22T01:00Z while clockFor still called it live for an American
reader until 09:00Z, and the page said it ran to 03:59 server time. The reader
does not see a stale row; they see the deadline they were counting down to
disappear on its last day, which is the silent drop this codebase treats as the
dangerous failure.
latestBoundaryMs answers clockFor's question for the last region rather than
one reader's, so a row is history only once it is history everywhere. It follows
a game's own server map and reset hour for the same reason clockFor does —
Endfield and Reverse: 1999 both move. Nothing stored changes: this is one
comparison, not a resolved boundary written into the feed, and no expected.json
moves.
Being generous by nine hours costs an expired row at the bottom of a list.
Being strict costs a live one.

Two are worth building. MementoMori's current-events page parses today with no
parser change at all — seven events out of a seven-row table, six of them live.
Fire Emblem Heroes has the freshest page found anywhere here and states both
boundaries in their own columns, which is a shape the parser cannot read: not
two header words, but a title with a separate start and end, where the existing
Start/End reader wants the rowspan pair. It also publishes one real seven-month
banner, which the 180-day rule rejects as a misread year — a decision to make
before the fixture is written, because the fixture is the test.
The other eleven fail in three ways worth telling apart. Seven wikis are
abandoned, newest page between 2021 and 2025: they parse perfectly and publish
history, which is the failure a stale source hides behind. Gundam prints ends
with no starts, so no event ID exists to mint. Pokemon UNITE is current and
still refused, because its template fails canParse — the structural check doing
exactly its job rather than emptying a lane quietly.
Two method notes, both of which cost time. A hub's navigation is not an index of
its pages: four of these games have a schedule page linked from nowhere in the
nav, found only by searching. And "Last updated on:" separates a live wiki from
a dead one in a single grep, which is the check that was missing when Infinity
Nikki went a year stale.

As written, the Blue Archive rule said a wall clock with no stated zone is
unparseable and that rounding it to a day "does not save it". Taken literally
that condemns every Game8 date in this repository — those state no zone either,
and are published at day precision without anyone minding.
What those Blue Archive tables actually were is narrower and worse: three of the
five did not say which server they described. A clock whose server is unknown
cannot even be labelled with a day, because you do not know whose day it is.
That is the case the rule governs, and it now says so.
Converting an unzoned clock by picking an offset stays forbidden, which is the
part that protects event IDs: the offset moves the day, and the start's day is
half of every ID.
Recorded because the rule and the Infinity Nikki source contradicted each other,
and AGENTS.md says that disagreement is a bug to fix rather than reconcile in
your head.

The Game8 page stopped being updated on 31 August 2025 and mentions 2026 zero
times, and it had been publishing five year-old events with endsAt: null — which
the app renders as live-with-unknown-end indefinitely. That is worse than an
empty lane, and nothing in the pipeline catches it, because a stale page is not
a broken one: it fetches, it parses, it passes every test.
The replacement is the game's Fandom wiki, permitted by the same standard
robots.txt that cleared Nikke, maintained to within two days, and shaped as
Current / Upcoming / Permanent / Past tables of Event | Duration | Description
| Type.
Its durations state a wall clock on both sides and no zone anywhere for that
column, so parseZonelessClockRange reads the clock and discards it, publishing
the printed date at day precision. That invents nothing and treats these cells
exactly as every Game8 date already is. Converting instead would mean picking an
offset, and the offset moves the day: July 16 20:00 read as UTC-7 is July 17,
and the start's day is half of every event ID this game will ever have.
The Game8 entry is removed rather than kept as a second opinion, since a source
whose every row is wrong is not corroboration. Its fixture stays: it is the only
page here carrying the labelled "Start: ... End: Permanent" shape, and the test
now drives it through the parser directly.
Titles come from a link's title attribute, which never passes through text(), so
they are entity-decoded by hand — otherwise "Alison's Travel Shop" becomes a
slug, and a slug is a localStorage key. The ingest sanitiser caught exactly that
during the build.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
The lane's Game8 page is a year stale, and the last pass concluded there was
nowhere to move it. That was wrong: infinity-nikki.fandom.com is maintained,
permitted by the same standard Fandom robots.txt as Nikke, and its Event page
carries Current and Upcoming tables with full dates and clocks on both sides.
What it does not carry is a timezone on the Duration column. The page says
UTC-7 in prose about version launches and notes a 04:00 Server Time reset, and
the durations run 04:00 to 03:59, which only lands on a reset boundary if the
column is server-local. Strong, and circumstantial. It matters because the
offset moves the day, and the start's day is half an event ID.
Four options are written out with what each costs. The recommendation is to
take the printed date at day precision, which invents nothing and treats these
cells exactly as every Game8 date is already treated — and which contradicts
the Blue Archive rule as written, so that rule needs narrowing to say which
case it governs. Flagged rather than resolved: it changes an existing lane, and
retiring the game instead would drop a GameId that prefixes every completion
key its readers hold.

Its robots.txt was read in a browser and is the standard Fandom file: no
Disallow: / for *, /api.php?action= explicitly allowed, and only the namespaces
we never want refused. The AI crawlers it blocks by name are not us. That was
the one thing missing — the API itself has always answered our own User-Agent
with a 200, and it is only robots.txt that a datacentre address cannot read.
The zone lives in the column header, Start(UTC+9) / End(UTC+9), and no date in
any cell carries an offset. So the header is the safety property: a table that
stops naming its zone is refused rather than read as UTC, which is the Blue
Archive hazard arriving one column to the left.
Two shapes worth knowing. Every title is an image read from <a title>, and the
newest row is the one whose logo has not been uploaded yet — it renders as a
red link reading "File:Persona on Frontline logo.png", so a reader that only
understood the link title would silently drop today's live event. And story
events state a clock only on the end, so the start keeps the day the page
printed rather than being shifted nine hours into the previous one; the start's
day is half an event ID. That is the FGO rule applied to the opposite gap.
resetOffsets and resetHourLocal ship with the game because the page evidences
both: events end 04:59:59 and the banner replacing them starts 05:00:00, one
second later, on a stated UTC+9. Adding that later would re-label day keys
readers had already logged ticks under.
Seconds now survive the date helpers, since rounding 04:59:59 to the minute
would make an event overlap the banner that succeeds it.

Every one of the fourteen sources was fetched and parsed. Twelve are healthy.
The two findings that are not about a game we just added:
Fandom's posture tightened on 2026-08-19 and now covers every wiki. Yesterday
blhx.fandom.com served robots.txt a 200, which is what the r1999 permission
argument leaned on; today every Fandom wiki tried answers 403 to our fetcher
and gives a real browser a challenge that never resolves. So r1999 and fgo are
permanently fixture-backed, and no new Fandom source can be added at all —
which is what blocks Nikke, whose data is the best of anything unbuilt. It is
blocked rather than declined: one person on an address Fandom serves can read
that file and unblock it.
Infinity Nikki's source is stale and there is nowhere to move it. The Game8
page was last updated 31 August 2025, mentions 2026 zero times, and publishes
five events with endsAt: null that read as live indefinitely — worse than an
empty lane, through a source that looks healthy to the runner because a stale
page is not a broken one. Every replacement was checked and none works. That
one is a decision for the owner, not a fix: retiring the lane drops a GameId
that prefixes every completion key its readers hold.
SOURCES.md carries each game's outcome and the reasoning behind the declines,
so the next pass does not re-derive any of it.

Near matching exists to reconcile two sources describing one event under
different titles. Within one source it has no such job: the page has already
told us these are two rows, the parser has already dropped repeats of the same
id, and fusing them overrules a distinction the publisher made on purpose.
The loose 0.80 threshold that makes the rule useful across sources makes it
actively wrong within one. Umamusume's banner list runs "3 Star Guaranteed 1.5
Anniversary Scout (Character)" and "(Support)" concurrently — titles differing
by a single parenthetical, starting the same day — and fusing them dropped a
live banner off the calendar with nothing anywhere reporting it. A silent drop
is the failure this codebase ranks as the dangerous one.
Same-id fusion is untouched, so nothing duplicates.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
uma.moe stays declined — its API sits behind a Cloudflare Turnstile proof
header, and an adapter would mean defeating a deliberate access control. This
is the surface that is simply open, and it needed the parser change in the
commit before this one to be readable at all.
The stable URL matters: Game8 also publishes monthly "August 2026 Release
Schedule" pages whose id changes every month, which a static registry cannot
follow. "List of All Banners" does not move.
Four current banners, both columns of the side-by-side table, and none of the
Previous Banners below them. The tenth game8 source, so it carries the same CI
blindness as the other nine and only a manual refresh moves it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
Game8's banner pages lay two schedules side by side inside one <table> under a
spanning label row: "Standard Banners | Banner | Rating | Availability | Paid
Banners | ...". That row is not merely unhelpful, it is plausible — it contains
both column words, so it resolves and puts the range at index 3, which no
three-cell data row has. Every row then fails to date and the table yields
nothing at all, with no error anywhere. So readColumnTable now falls back to
row 1, and only when row 0 produced nothing, which is what keeps every page
that parses today parsing identically.
Those pages also schedule banners rather than events and head their sections
accordingly, so the vocabulary learns "List of All Banners", "All Current
Banners" and — the one that matters — "Previous Banners", whose rows are dated
identically to the live ones directly above them.
This parser serves nine sources, so the widening was measured rather than
trusted: every pinned fixture and every live snapshot was parsed before and
after, and no existing source's output changed by a single event.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
No parser work at all — a GameId, a games entry, a SOURCES line, a fixture and
a test. The page lists six current events and the parser publishes four; the
two it skips print "Start Date: -", and no start means no event ID, so that is
the skip-never-guess rule working rather than a silent drop.
The cost is worth stating plainly: this is the ninth game8 source, and game8's
edge answers the Actions runner with a 202 and a bot-management body, so the
lane is built from a checked-in fixture in CI from day one and only a manual
`bun run refresh` moves it. freshness() discloses that in the footer, which is
what it is for.

This wiki publishes the same schedule twice and the fuller surface is the worse
one. /wiki/Banner_List has 55 clean rows with full wall clocks and states no
timezone anywhere on the page; the front page's Current Banners module emits
the same instants as real <time datetime="...-07:00"> elements. The two agree
exactly, which is strong evidence the list is UTC and is still only evidence —
so we read the surface that says what it means and pay four live banners
instead of a full history for it. If an editor ever states the zone on
Banner_List, that page becomes the better source immediately.
Two ways this could have failed silently. The template writes its BEM
underscores as __, so a selector written against the class name a
browser shows matches nothing at all; and banner names are red links to
?action=edit&redlink=1, which Miraheze's robots.txt disallows, so a href
carrying a query is refused and the page URL stands in.
No resetOffsets, and here the source did state an offset: -07:00, which is US
Pacific and therefore shifts twice a year. That is the Fate/Grand Order gap
arriving through a page that looks like it answered the question.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
The best date material this project has after wiki.gg: every row states an
exact instant on both boundaries and names the zone, so nothing is converted
and nothing is assumed. `parseIsoClockRangeUtc` requires that `(UTC)` rather
than defaulting to it — a row that ever loses it should drop out instead of
landing hours off a boundary the reader is watching in-game.
The hazard here is the Server column. CN, EN and JP rows share one table and
the Chinese schedule runs about a year ahead, which is the akwiki CN-column
problem verbatim: publish EN, skip the rest. Betas are fenced off separately,
being dated exactly like everything else and playable by nobody, and the page
is an archive back to 2023, so currency is decided against ctx.now as in
bawiki. That leaves one live event today — thin, and true.
No resetOffsets: the EN boundaries land on three different clocks, which is a
patch window rather than a reset hour.

PRD gets F15 and the fork that asked for it, DATA-MODEL the prefs field
and the fact that a script outside the bundle now reads that key, and
ARCHITECTURE the pre-paint script — the one piece of this that is neither
CSS nor React.

other, and nothing will tell you which.

The loudest feedback on the first release was "not enough games", so the
same wikis get researched again every pass — and the expensive half of
that work is not finding a page, it is establishing that a page which
fetches and parses cleanly is a 2021 archive, or states a wall clock with
no timezone, or belongs to a game that is shutting down in October.
This writes down what was actually checked on 2026-08-18: what each page
publishes, which existing parser can already read it, whether CI could
ever fetch it, and the hazard that would produce a confidently wrong date.
The verdicts stay proposals — once one is acted on the ruling belongs in
AGENTS.md § Scraping conduct, next to the sources already declined.

F1 described the scale only by how far out it goes — three months on a

F1 described "one lane per game" as a fact about the timeline, which is

F4a called it "a bar at the top of the page", which the previous two
commits made false above `lg` — the working agreement's two-column bullet

A source that prints "August 19, 2026" and no time is stored at 00:00Z,
which is a placeholder for "somewhere in this day" rather than a claim
about when the day opens. The countdown read it literally, which turns it
into exactly that claim — and the UTC day is nobody's. Wuthering Waves
events dated the 19th were still running three hours after we had retired
them, because a European player's day opens at 04:00 on a UTC+1 server;
Asia was four hours out the other way and America nine. Sixty-two of the
eighty-six published events were affected, across ten of thirteen games,
so the reader was reading a wrong number far more often than a right one.
A day-precision boundary now resolves to the reset that opens that
game-day on the reader's server — the same grid daily.ts keys every tick
by, and the only clock we hold for a game. That is a reading of the date
the source printed, not a time invented for it: nothing stored moves, no
event ID moves, and the parsers still refuse to guess.
Two boundaries are never re-anchored. A regionEnds value is already the
instant a source stated per server, so anchoring it would throw a fact
away. And an event the reader typed in was resolved by readerInstant in
their own timezone, which is a stated time too — theirs.

The adapter shipped with no docs at all, which left the one thing worth
writing down unwritten: this wiki publishes two servers' schedules on
two cross-linked pages, and the Japanese one parses just as cleanly as
ours. That now has a row in the assessed-sources table, a section under
Fandom, and a line in the ingestion pitfalls table alongside the akwiki
CN column and the bawiki JP tab — three sources bitten the same way is
a pattern, not a coincidence.
Also records what resetOffsets cannot express, since fgo is the first
game to need it: a server clock that shifts with daylight saving.
DATA-MODEL's GameId listing was two games behind the schema, missing
holodori as well as fgo.

One density cannot answer both questions the board is asked. A patch cycle is
six weeks, a login campaign runs for months, and 13px a day is a compromise
between "what am I in the middle of this week?" and "how do the next three
months line up?" that serves neither well.
A pair of controls steps through a ladder of day widths and the choice is
remembered, on the same argument as the view tabs: a reader who has said how
they want to read this should not say it again on the next load.
Two things it had to get right. Zooming holds the middle of the view still —
rescaling around the left edge of a three-month board throws away whatever
they had scrolled to, and re-opening at today would undo the scrolling that
got them there. And the dated ticks thin out as the scale shrinks, because a
week is 42px at the widest setting and the dates would sit on top of each
other; the gridlines stay weekly, since they carry the rhythm rather than the
reading.
The scale is stored as the measurement, not a step number, and read through
`snapDayWidth`. An export written against a different ladder then opens on
something close to what its reader chose, and a corrupt value opens on the
default rather than a board one pixel wide.

Adding a source is our decision, not the reader's. Eleven lanes became
fourteen this week, and for someone who plays two that is not a feature
arriving — it is their calendar filling with events they will never open,
which is the thing the first-run picker exists to prevent.
`knownGames` records every lane a reader has been offered; a lane missing from
it is new to them, so it is recorded and hidden on sight. The games chips in
settings list every lane, on or off, which is where they take one up.
The case that had to be right is the reader who installed before any of this
existed: they have no `knownGames` at all, and reading that as "has been
offered nothing" would switch off every game they already read. Absent means
unrecorded — the first pass records what is already on their screen and
changes nothing else. Lanes they invented are recorded but never hidden;
typing a game in is asking for it.
The decision is a pure function so this is provable rather than watched for.
One real cost, stated in the PRD rather than hidden: a reader whose game
finally arrives is not told, which makes the colophon roadmap matter more.

"Ending soon" described the sort, not the job — and it sat one line above a
sort control whose own option reads "Ending soonest", so the tab and the
ordering looked like the same control said twice. Checklist is what a reader
with four games is doing with it.
The stored id stays "soon". That value is in `prefs.view` on real devices, and
a label is copy: renaming one must never move a reader to the other view.

Two changes to how the board reads.
The window was drawn from the earliest start, so one long-running event — a
standing login campaign can have been going half a year — bought months of
empty calendar that nobody scrolls back through and that pushed every other
bar off to the right. It now floors at two months, a patch cycle and a half:
far enough that a running event's start is usually still on the board, past
the point where the answer changes what anyone does today. A bar older than
the board keeps its faded left edge rather than being redrawn as though it
started there.
The bars themselves were 28px with 4px between them, which read as a stack of
hairlines rather than a schedule. They are 36px now, with more padding, more
air between events, and more between lanes.
`boardWindow` comes out of the component while it is being changed: it
decides what a reader can and cannot see, which is worth a test rather than a
rendering.

New holodoriwiki parser plus the holodori-holodoriwiki-events source,
giving the game its two live and upcoming events at exact precision.
holodori.wiki is Miraheze, so this is the same call bawiki makes and for
the same reason: robots.txt disallows /w/ and /*?action=, which closes the
API route and leaves the rendered /wiki/Events page as the surface * is
allowed. It serves our own User-Agent a 200, sets no Content-Signal and no
Crawl-delay for us, and the wiki is CC BY-SA 4.0.
What makes this source unusually good is that it states its timezone on
every cell — 08/17/2026 8:00PM (JST) — so it is the only wiki source here
publishing exact precision on both boundaries without a per-region timer.
parseSlashClockZone requires that zone rather than defaulting to UTC: a row
that ever loses it drops out instead of silently landing nine hours off,
and an abbreviation absent from the table is refused rather than guessed,
which is why the table holds only JST and not the plausible-looking
candidates that are not fixed offsets. The 12-hour clock gets its own
handling and its own tests, because 12PM and 12AM are the two readings a
naive parser gets wrong while still producing a valid-looking instant.
Inclusion is fenced by the Current Events <h2> and bounded by the next one.
That matters more than it looks: Past Events sits directly below with
identical columns, so a reader taking every wikitable would put the back
catalogue on the calendar with nothing to mark it. Rows are still checked
against ctx.now on top of the heading, because Current is maintained by
hand and goes stale before anyone moves a row down.
Two rows are deliberately missing. Beginner Mission runs Game Launch →
Unknown, and no start means no event ID — a permanent tutorial chore is not
what a calendar of deadlines is for. An Unknown end is kept as endsAt null,
and unlike bawiki this parser does not drop a started-but-undated row: the
heading has already said the event is running, which is the fact bawiki
lacks when reading an archive.
Every event title is still a red link — the wiki has no article for any of
them yet — so each points at ?action=edit&redlink=1, a create-page form on
a path this robots.txt disallows. Refusing a href with a query keeps those
out and falls back to the events page; the articles get linked when they
exist, with no change here.
holodori gets resetOffsets of UTC+9 across all three regions, evidenced
rather than assumed the way Arknights' is: the game launched worldwide
simultaneously on one service, every boundary is stated in JST, and
Training Support Missions ends at 3:59AM JST, one minute before a 04:00
local reset. Only the offset is overridden; the hour is the default.
Setting it now is free, because no reader has a day key for a game the app
has never shipped — the same override a year from now would re-label ticks
already logged.
Both boundaries and the exclusions are asserted against an independent
extraction off the fixture, computed through a timezone library rather than
by the parser's own arithmetic.
Several counts in AGENTS.md and PRD.md were already stale before this — the
Fate/Grand Order source did not update them — and are corrected to what the
tree now holds rather than to what it held yesterday.

The reader who was asked what good looks like named paimon.moe's timeline,
and the thing ours was missing is what that view never loses: on a wide
window we drew more calendar and nothing that said which day, whose game, or
which event was on screen. The date axis, the lane names and the event names
all scrolled away together — and a six-week bar starts weeks off the left
edge, so its name went with its start date and left a coloured rectangle.
So it is a pane that scrolls in both directions, with the axis stuck to the
top and every name stuck to the left. A name is sticky inside its own bar, so
it can never wander onto an event it does not belong to. The axis gained the
week the schedules are actually written in: a dated tick every Monday and a
brighter rule at each month.
The frozen label column that started this went away again — it stood on the
calendar and ate the names it was meant to keep. Lane names sit on their own
line instead, and "jump to today" sits in the board's header rather than
floating over the dates it sends you back to.

Every screen got the same 672px column, so a desktop reader read a phone page
with two thirds of the window empty — and the one design criticism the release
thread produced was formed from a screenshot.
Past lg the page splits along the line this codebase already draws: what it
tells the reader to do — the next deadlines, tonight's dailies — pins to a
rail on the left and stays there while the lists it shows them scroll beside
it. The footer and the settings panel become columns rather than a long fall
of small grey text. Below that breakpoint nothing moves: the same split puts
the instructions first in one column.
The rail's rule sits on the panel rather than the column. The panel is short
and the list beside it is long, so a full-height divider would spend most of
its length walling off a gap.

The reader who reported this had two games switched on, twenty-one live
events, and said the list stopped being usable — and every game added doubles
down on that. Each section now shows six rows with an explicit "show all N".
It truncates the view and nothing else. The slice comes off the front of a
list already in the order the reader chose, so the hidden rows keep their
place, stay counted in the header, and stay on the timeline. Expanding is
per-visit state: it is something you do while reading one list, not a
statement about how the app should work.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
`view` was component state, so a reader who preferred the timeline was put
back on the list by every reload — and which view opened at all had been
decided for them twice over: the PRD said calendar, the app shipped the list.
Neither was the reader's answer.
So the first run asks, and the tabs write to `prefs` from then on. The
question ships pre-answered with the list, because a reader cannot choose
between two layouts they have not seen and that is the one that answers "what
expires next" in a look — and each option is drawn rather than described, for
the same reason. The screen says where to change it afterwards, since the tabs
are small text in a corner.
Adds `view` to the prefs key space. Additive and defaulted, so an existing
reader's stored prefs open exactly where they did before.

A reader with two games switched on said the list lost its point at
twenty-one rows and asked for the three closest deadlines up front. One row
was also fragile on its own terms: ticking off the headline event left the
panel pointing at something the reader had no context for.
Three equal panels would be a stat grid, and a reader arrives with one
question — so the shape is one answer at full size and two follow-ups under
it, with no meter, summary or badges to turn the panel into a second copy of
the list below it.

New bawiki parser plus the ba-bawiki-events source, giving the game its
two live and upcoming events at day precision.
It reads the rendered /wiki/Events page, which is the opposite call to the
Fandom source next door and for the same kind of reason: bluearchive.wiki
is Miraheze, whose robots.txt disallows /w/ and /*?action=, so there the
API is the closed route and the page is the surface * is allowed. It
serves our own User-Agent a 200, sets no Content-Signal and no Crawl-delay
for us. The Fandom wiki was declined earlier as a JP archive yielding
nothing live; this is the live source that assessment pointed at.
Three page facts shape the parser, each a way to publish a confidently
wrong date. The schedule is a JP/Global tabber and the Japanese version
runs four to nine months ahead, so only Global is published — the akwiki
hazard. The Global tab's nav button carries the id
tabber-Global_version-label and precedes both panels, so slicing from the
first matching id reads the Japanese schedule while believing it read
ours; the first version of this parser did exactly that and published a
JP-only event. And three tabs on the page are named Global, the schedule
plus Mini-Event and Joint Firing Drill, so the schedule is found by its
Name (EN) header rather than by position, with canParse asserting the same
lookup — a renamed tab or column fails the run instead of emptying the
lane.
The page states no time of day and no timezone anywhere, which is why the
dates are day precision and why ba gets no resetOffsets. It also settles
the five other schedule tables, which do carry a wall clock but name no
zone and mostly do not say which server: reading those as UTC would invent
the fact that matters most, and rounding to a day would not save it,
because a 04:00 local boundary falls either side of UTC midnight depending
on the offset assumed and the start's day is part of the event ID. They
are left unparsed deliberately.
The two-event count is asserted against an independent extraction off the
fixture, and both starts corroborate against the per-event infoboxes
elsewhere on the page — GL 2026-08-04 and GL 2026-09-01, where the JP
reruns those tabs would have given are 2026-04-01 and 2026-05-06.
Three comment counts were already stale before this and are corrected to
what the tree now holds rather than to what it held yesterday.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
bluearchive.wiki gives each boundary its own column and writes it as a
plain 2026-08-04, so unlike every reader here there is no range to split
and no field order to infer. Day precision, because the page states no
time of day.
Anchored at both ends, which matters more for this shape than for any
other in the module: it is the least distinctive one, and unanchored it
would happily find a date inside an article slug or a version string.
Also names the two readers the paragraph below the table was describing.
"The last two" stopped being true when rows were appended after them, and
the examples belong to parseAdjacentFullRange either way.

AGENTS.md now sends agents here to decide what to build next, which makes
a list where half the items have shipped actively misleading — P1a, three
of the games, the Timeline rename and custom events are all done, and
nothing here said so.
The thread reading stays fixed at the date it was made; only a status
table moves. Each item keeps its diagnosis, because those still hold —
what changed is whether anyone acted. Recording the not-dones is the point
as much as the dones: NextUp is still one row, the list still has no
expander, view is still component state, and those were the cheapest items
on the list.

The footer only spoke up past the two-day threshold, and then only as a
count of stale sources. A page silent about its own age reads as current,
so it now says when the data last refreshed on every load — absolute date
plus relative age, next to where the warning appears. This is the half of
PRD F7 that was never built.
Where the number comes from is the whole point. `freshness()` in
src/shared/feed.ts takes the newest lastSuccessAt and never generatedAt:
the feed is rebuilt on every deploy whether or not anything was refetched,
so a build stamp would report a calendar as minutes old while its events
came from a fixture captured months ago. A game is also only as fresh as
its oldest source, or Endfield's live wiki would vouch for its stalled
Game8 page. That matters concretely here — eight sources cannot be fetched
from CI at all, so this notice is what stands between a reader and a
confidently stale calendar.
The stale warning now names the lagging games and how far behind each is,
because a count is not something a reader can act on while a name tells
them which source page to check. Two exceptions found by rendering it
against the real feed: past four games it summarises the remainder, and
when every game is behind — what a refresh that stopped running looks like
— it collapses to one sentence rather than ten names repeating one age.

This file was written before sanitize, the refresh runner, the daily
checklists and F13 landed, and had not been revisited since. Its tree
omitted eleven files that exist — akwiki, fandom, sanitize, robots,
snapshots, daily, effort, custom, useCustom, gameMeta and the two custom
components — plus refresh-sources.ts, the only code here that touches the
network. A layout doc that silently omits the trust boundary is worse than
no layout doc.
Three counts contradicted the docs they pointed at: seven stages against
INGESTION's six, six SQLite tables against DATA-MODEL's five, six date
formats against ten. The diagram dropped merge and labelled localStorage
"completions", which DATA-MODEL marks superseded.
The larger repair is that it presented the in-process 6h scheduler as
what runs. It is not built; refresh-sources.ts on an Actions cron is,
writing snapshots to disk with the feed built from files rather than
SQLite. Rather than rewrite the design as though it had always been this,
the diagram keeps it and a note says which half is real — the stages and
the review gate are unchanged either way, and only what wakes them up and
where they land differ. The broken tier is recorded in the same place,
since three failures raising health to failing and the runner reporting
broken are one fact described from two ends.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
Each of these was true when written and stopped being true when a source
landed. dates.ts holds ten formats, not nine; INGESTION says Game8 uses
"at least four page templates" directly above a list of seven; its testing
note still credits "both current adapters" when there are eleven; PRD
lists the seven launch games against ten in GameId. AGENTS also missed
fandom from the parsers-are-keyed-by-site bullet and build-static.ts from
the tree, which matters because another section leans on the latter.
The PRD table stays as launch scope rather than becoming a roster to keep
in sync — GameId is named as the live answer instead, which is the same
move that keeps this drift from recurring. Its no-schema-change claim is
sharpened to name GachaEvent, because Reverse: 1999 did add a field:
resetHourLocal, to game metadata, which moves no stored key. The claim as
written read as false against a commit that plainly added one.
Also draws sanitize into the stage diagram as 2.5. It runs on every source
without the pipeline arranging it, which is exactly why it kept being
absent from the picture.

bluearchive.fandom.com/wiki/Event/Event_List fetches and parses cleanly,
so the reason to decline it is not obvious from trying it: every one of its
88 rows is JP-server history, the newest ending 2026-02-18, so it yields
zero live or upcoming events. That reads as an empty lane plus a
permanently rejected snapshot, since the runner rejects a body parsing to
nothing — a failure mode worth naming in the assessment table, because
"clean table, no error" invites writing the adapter first.
bluearchive.wiki is the live alternative and stays unbuilt for now: it is
Miraheze, its robots closes the API route we used for Fandom, and it lists
JP and Global in separate tables — the akwiki hazard, which wants settling
before a line is written rather than after.

New `fandom` parser plus the r1999-fandom-events source, giving the game
six live and upcoming events at exact precision.
It fetches api.php?action=parse, not /wiki/Events. The rendered page
answers a non-browser client with a Cloudflare challenge, and getting past
that would be defeating an access control — the reason uma.moe was
declined. The wiki's robots.txt instead allows /api.php?action= for *, and
that endpoint serves our real User-Agent a 200, so this reads the
sanctioned surface with our own headers and no impersonation. The body is
therefore JSON, which is what canParse checks first: a challenge page or
an error payload must fail loudly, not parse to zero events.
Two page facts shape the parser. Titles come from each row's <b>, because
a missing banner image renders as a red link reading "File:<Event>
Banner.png" that a cell-text reader would publish as the event name. And
the page is an archive of 154 rows since v1.1 with no ongoing section to
gate on, so inclusion is decided against ctx.now — the six-event count is
asserted against an independent extraction off the fixture, per
docs/INGESTION.md § Testing.
Because robots.txt is unreadable from a challenged address, the gate fails
closed in CI and the source is skipped there — a warning, not a broken
build. Refreshing it means running `bun run refresh` from an address
Fandom serves.
